Examining the Use of Autonomous Systems for Home Health Support using a Smart Mirror (2023)
Working Paper
The home is becoming a key location for healthcare delivery, including the use of technology driven by autonomous systems (AS) to monitor and support healthcare plans. Using the example of a smart mirror, this paper describes the outcomes of focus gr... Read More about Examining the Use of Autonomous Systems for Home Health Support using a Smart Mirror.
The association between prescription drugs and vaccines commonly prescribed to older people and bullous pemphigoid: a UK population-based study (2023)
Working Paper
Introduction Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a serious skin disease that results in large painful blisters developing over the body and occurs most commonly in older people (over 70 years). Despite several comorbidities such as stroke and a threefold inc...

Feasibility and Acceptability of an Internet of Things–Enabled Sedentary Behavior Intervention: Mixed Methods Study (Preprint) (2022)
Working Paper
Background: Encouraging office workers to break up prolonged sedentary behavior (SB) at work with regular micro-breaks can be beneficial yet challenging. Internet of Things (IoT) offers great promise for delivering more subtle and hence acceptable b...

Understanding Trust and Sustained Use or Abandonment after a Year with the NHS Covid-19 Contact Tracing App in the United Kingdom: A Longitudinal Mixed-Method Study (2022)
Working Paper
Background: Digital contact tracing (DCT) apps have been recently implemented widely as a response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Research has focused on understanding the acceptance and adoption of these apps, but more work is needed to understand which...

Navigating Incommensurability Between Ethnomethodology, Conversation Analysis, and Artificial Intelligence (2022)
Working Paper
Like many research communities, ethnomethodologists and conversation analysts have begun to get caught up -- yet again -- in the pervasive spectacle of surging interests in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Inspired by discussions amongst a growing netwo... Read More about Navigating Incommensurability Between Ethnomethodology, Conversation Analysis, and Artificial Intelligence.
Using Patient and Public Involvement to Elicit Opinion on Cognitive Training Games and Assessment Technologies for Dementia (2022)
Working Paper
Background: Cognitive training and assessment technologies offer the promise of dementia risk reduction and more timely diagnosis of dementia respectively. Cognitive training technologies may help to reduce the lifetime risk of dementia by helping...

Public Adoption of and Trust in the NHS COVID-19 Contact Tracing App in the United Kingdom: Quantitative Online Survey Study (2021)
Working Paper
Background: Digital contact tracing is employed to monitor and manage the spread of COVID-19. However, to be effective the system must be adopted by a substantial proportion of the population. Studies of mostly hypothetical contact tracing apps show...

Using digitally augmented objects to reduce sedentary behavior in office workers: design and development of the WorkMyWay intervention (2020)
Working Paper
Background: Sedentary behavior (SB) is associated with various adverse health outcomes. The prevalence of prolonged sitting at work among office workers makes a case for SB interventions to target this setting and population. Everyday mundane obje...

Right to an Explanation Considered Harmful (2019)
Working Paper
Agent-Based Simulation Modelling for Reflecting on Consequences of Digital Mental Health (2019)
Working Paper
The premise of this working paper is based around agent-based simulation models and how to go about creating them from given incomplete information. Agent-based simulations are stochastic simulations that revolve around groups of agents that each hav...
